Modeling and Grading Tips

As you follow along with the tutorials to generate slopes and elevation, keep the following tips in mind.

3 As discussed earlier, all drafted edges and faces should be drawn on Layer 0.

3 G eometry generated using From Contour will be created as a group. Place the group geometry onto its own layer called Terrain.

3 When you are working with Groups and Components, make sure you are aware of group or component instances within which you are working, especially the Flatwork Base.

3 You will have to turn on Hidden Geometry (View > Hidden Geometry) when you work with the tools that help generate and edit organic geometry.

3 In most cases, you will need to draft construction geometry, a framework composed of edges to delineate the form and shape of elevation or grade that will be generated.
